Enabling SSE-KMS

To enable SSE-KMS, the property fs.s3a.server-side-encryption-algorithm must be set to SSE-KMS in core-site.xml.

<property>
  <name>fs.s3a.server-side-encryption-algorithm</name>
  <value>SSE-KMS</value>
</property>

The ID of the specific key used to encrypt the data should also be set in the property fs.s3a.server-side-encryption.key:

<property>
<name>fs.s3a.server-side-encryption.key</name>
<value>arn:aws:kms:us-west-2:360379543683:key/071a86ff-8881-4ba0-9230-95af6d01ca01</value>
</property>

If your account is set up set up with a default KMS key and fs.s3a.server-side-encryption.key is unset, the default key will be used.

Alternatively, organizations may define a default key in the Amazon KMS; if a default key is set, then it will be used whenever SSE-KMS encryption is chosen and the value of fs.s3a.server-side-encryption.key is empty.
